Sisganj Sahib Gurudwara, Chandni Chowk Reimagining a 17th-century Gurudwara in Old Delhi Gurudwara Sisganj Sahib is one of the nine historical gurdwaras in Delhi, first established in 1783. We reimagined the interiors of the sacral shrine, taking inspiration from a flower, an element of nature associated with spirituality and divine energy.

Elevating the bathroom from a service facility to a luxurious space At LTDF, the love of the loo drives us to create an oasis of self-care, relaxation and indulgence.

Today, bathroom designs extend beyond regular functions, working on all the senses and becoming a seamless extension of the spaces they are attached to.
